Mother's Day

On Sunday, May 12, we celebrate Mother’s Day. Mother’s Day this year immediately precedes the May 13 Memorial of our Blessed Mother, Our Lady of Fatima.

On Mother’s Day, we will remember all our mothers and grandmothers, living and deceased; Saint Anne Parish will offer a Novena of Masses for our mothers. You may enroll your mother in our Mother’s Day Novena by writing her name on the enclosed envelope and returning it to the parish either through the offertory or the office by May 12; any offering may be made. We will place the names of your mothers upon our Altar where they will remain for the nine days of the Novena, from Sunday, May 12 through Monday, May 20.

Beautiful Mother’s Day Mass Cards in English and in Spanish are available in baskets in our Church sanctuary; you may send a Catholic Mass Card remembrance to your mother or grandmother.

On Wednesday May 22, following this Novena, we celebrate the Ordination to the Deaconate of Rev. Mr. Rogelio Molina; next May, God willing, we will celebrate the Deaconate Ordination of our own Seminarian intern, Mauricio Espino, who completes his internship with us this Mother’s Day. We rejoice in the Holy Spirit’s gift of priestly and religious vocations, and for the continued growth of Holy Mother Church.

We take this Mother’s Day mailing opportunity to remind every family that now is the time to apply for the state School Choice Scholarship; these scholarships cover tuition, registration, and fees at Saint Anne School - a true blessing! Easter is also a blessed time for all Saint Anne families to complete their Catholic Stewardship Appeal (CSA) Tithe.

May our mothers be richly blessed in the Lord Jesus, now, and in the life to come. And may Our Blessed Mother intercede for our mothers, and for our Church, with tender, maternal love.
